I’m hooked because I want to know who the “he” is in “he knows”. If it’s your dad and you are younger than 18, this is probably big trouble. If it’s someone who can arrest your ass, this is also not good. I can’t think of anybody else I’d be worried about unless he’s in some conoutry where they lock you up and give you a “speedy” trial in 7-10 years.

I wish you a safe trip through therapy. I have spent a lot of time in intense therapy myself trying to deal with my mental issues — Bipolar Disorder, panic/anxiety and severe OCD. I have a lot of stories myself. My life is certainly never dull! Some of my writing is also from my life.

This was a powerful opener. My heart fell when I noticed in the comments that this is your personal story. I’m sorry you’ve been through this. On the upside, I think you’ll have one heck of a story to tell 🙂

Hi Gina – and thank you for the follow, read and compliment! Someone emailed asking if this was my father – which I thought was interesting – because it totally could go that way. But that’s not the case. Looking forward to more Trifectas!
